1. Rest-to-Exercise: Anaerobic “anaerobic”
2. Rest-to-Exercise: Aerobic Example. . Assume standing requires 15 ATP and 0. 4 liters/min of oxygen Assume running at 6 mph requires 100 ATP and 1. 5 liter/min of oxygen A person can go from standing to running 6 mph in a mater of seconds. But, it takes 2 -3 minutes for the oxygen requirement to go from 0. 4 to 1. 5 liters/min Where does the ATP needed to run 6 m. p. h come from until adequate oxygen can be supplied?
Rest-to-Exercise: The Oxygen Deficit (anaerobic) (aerobic)
3. Recovery What needs to happen in recovery? ATP-PCr system P + Cr + energy ➡ PCr Glycolysis? Where does the energy comes from? Lactic acid removal from muscle fiber
Lactic Acid Removal Where? Heart and Type I Muscle Fibers How? Lactic acid ➞ Pyruvic Acid ➞ Acetyl Co-A ➞ Krebs Cycle (aerobic system)
Lactate as a Fuel During Exercise Slow twitch muscle fibers Heart muscle Liver via the Cori cycle
E. P. O. C EPOC • What does E. P. O. C. stand for note: oxygen consumption = energy • What contributes to the excess oxygen consumption?
E. P. O. C. (Used as a fuel)
4. Prolonged Aerobic Exercise Aerobic energy requires O 2 oxygen demand O 2 transported via cardioplumonary system oxygen supply
Prolonged Aerobic Exercise Deficit: O 2 supply < O 2 demand Steady State Exercise O 2 supply = O 2 demand Heart rate? Breathing rate?
5. Measurement of Aerobic Energy/Performance Maximal oxygen uptake Lactate threshold
Oxygen Uptake 79% N 20. 97% O 2 0. 03% CO 2 Ventilation (Liters of air per minute) 79% N ~17% O 2 ~4% CO 2 13
Oxygen Uptake (VO 2) 79% N 20. 97% O 2 0. 03% CO 2 VO 2 79% N ~17% O 2 ~4% CO 2 14
Oxygen Uptake (VO 2) What does it measure? How is it expressed? VO 2 ml/kg/min VO 2 liters/min
Maximum Oxygen Uptake (VO 2 max) VO 2 max What is VO 2 max? What does it represent?

Lactic Acid Production What happens to pyruvate? If adequate oxygen… pyruvate to acetyl Co. A hydrogen to H 2 O If inadequate oxygen… 2. pyruvate and hydrogen to lactic acid What happens to lactic acid levels as the exercise intensity increases? Oxygen Hydrogen 2. 1. Acetyl-Co. A Mitochondria (Krebs cycle & Electron Transport Chain)

7. Fuel Utilization During Exercise
Measuring Fuel Utilization During Exercise • Respiratory exchange ratio (RER or R) • • R = VCO 2 / VO 2 Fat (palmitic acid) = C 16 H 32 O 2 • C 16 H 32 O 2 + 23 O 2 ↔ 16 CO 2 + 16 H 2 O + ATP • R = VCO 2/VO 2 = 16 CO 2 / 23 O 2 = 0. 70 • Glucose = C 6 H 12 O 6 • • C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6 O 2 ↔ 6 CO 2 + 6 H 2 O + ATP R = VCO 2/VO 2 = 6 CO 2 / 6 O 2 = 1. 00 It takes more O 2 to burn fats so the R value for fats will be lower.
Fuel Utilization During Exercise Carbohydrates and Fats (very little Protein) Resting Low Intensity High Intensity Max. Intensity R % Fat % Carbs 0. 70 99 1 0. 75 83 17 0. 80 67 33 0. 85 50 50 0. 90 33 67 0. 95 17 83 1. 00 1 99
